"wasn't he Novice a a lap down"

As I have pointed out to BobG, since Josh did not do any of the qualifying rounds, (there a difference between a qualifying round in a championship and a heat in one race) then it is perfectly fair that he should have been awarded non-attendance points and therefore got 14 points in the overall championship.

Yes, the novice finished 3 out of 4, because one of the front runners had a mechanical problem in the final, and he had been lapped. He finished the Championship series with 10 points, because he had done the rounds.

You wouldn't expect Vettel to win the World Championship for being a winner in just the one race he did, no matter how convincing he looked.

" F.B Jnr.no 1,2+3 plate result won on Merit ?? ,proves what we are saying"

Well it proves that despite the great experience that you claim, you are completely ignorant of how a championship is scored or you are misleading people deliberately, but then you do claim it is for political purposes.

"I have NO connection with the NKF just an observation."

Well, let's see. I checked with the NKRA organisers and looked at all my old NKRA paperwork and despite your claim earlier, neither you nor your son have ever been appointed as a NKRA regional co-ordinator. Enquiries may have been made when Mark Carnwell stopped being co-ordinator, but there doesn't seem to be any paperwork to support your claim. The post was not given to you or your son.

So, your claim not to be involved with the NKF, while apparently offering to arrange an NKF round at Hooton would seem to be in the same vein.

",he didn't want to race at a meeting up here on the same day"
A careful choice of words there. I asked Ron Shone what he remembered of the case. If we are talking about the same person, it appears that the NKRA was told that the driver had run out of money,was giving up karting, sold up his kart and equipment and was unable to attend the meeting. However the next weekend he was entered at another meeting, in a different class. So it would appear that the circumstances aren't quite as straight forward as they are being represented.

"all the hard work up here as co- ordinator for the NKRA done by his dad."

I'm fairly sure it was not Nigel Pritchard's son and it certainly wasn't Steve Barlow's son, Nigel and Steve being the Northern and Scottish area reps at the time (2011).

As a competitor in the NKRA and Formula Blue, I am aware that a lot of the adverse feeling towards both is founded entirely on rumour, a lot of which comes from the same small group, some of whom have vested financial interests in running the NKRA down.

The NKRA is a good series, it is cheap and it does cater for the clubman driver in ways that none of the other championships do. Formula Blue is a good class that offers equal racing throughout all the weights and ages. You claim to admire both, but keep making misleading or unfounded statements about them, apparently to damage them and apparently without reason.

Perhaps you feel that if no-one points out that they are misleading or that they are unfounded, they will be accepted as 'the truth' by anyone ignorant of the Championship, the class or the people.
